  3. 3. Reflect on the following questions and post them on your group's blog:
    a. What is the difference between Primary and Secondary types of information? When are they useful to us?
    Unedited, firsthand access to words, images, or objects created by persons directly involved in an activity or event or speaking directly for a group. E.g.physical evidence or eyewitness testimony in a court trial.

    b. What is the difference between Popular and Scholarly types of information? When are they useful to us?
    Popular articles (usually brief) are those that feature a variety of topics -- including news, sports, short stories, art, fashion, etc..

    Scholarly language is very technical, and article authors assume some scholarly background of the reader.

    Digital Digital materials are information materials that are stored in an electronic format on a hard drive, CD-ROM, or remote server. Examples of digital materials are: e-books, e-journals, e-course materials, e-databases, Web sites, e-print archives, or e-classes. These materials are accessed with a computer via the Internet.
    Audio/Video Materials collected using video (television, video recordings), audio (radio, audio recordings) tools presented in recorded tapes, CDs, audio-cassettes, reel to reel tapes, record albums, DVDs, videocassettes, audio books, etc.
    Multimedia Multimedia uses different types of video and audio (text, audio, graphics, animation, video, and interactivity). Multimedia also refers to different types computer media. A PowerPoint presentation is an example of a multimedia format.
    Microform: material that has been shrunken down to size and can only be seen under a microsv

    c. What are the different formats of information?

    a. A primary information is unedited like lab notes but secondary information is edited like the textbooks. A primary information can be interviews, speeches as these are information which are not edited and for speeches we directly hear it but A secondary information can be textbooks and newspapers as these are information which are edited and these can be based on the primary information. Primary information is most useful when we want to the exact thing that happened, for example a interview. Secondary information is most useful when we want to learn the facts, for example the textbooks.
    b. A popular information inform and entertain the general public while A scholarly information gives us research and academic information. A popular information can be magazines and entertainment books because they entertain the general public while A scholarly information can be textbook on maths as they provide us with academic information. A popular information is most useful when you want entertain yourself while a scholarly information is most useful when you want to learn something.
